2021 Perseids meteor shower... Poor this year. Provence, South of France. Jupiter(left) and Saturn(right) planets visible below on the left... OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA
Another 'painting' from the rusted wall. Makes me think of a meteor shower or shooting stars (time to make a wish).
By far the brightest meteor I've ever seen with my own eyes and just fortunate my camera was pointing in the right direction at the time while on Brancaster beach in Norfolk ( UK ) This one taken on the 12/8/15. Let's hope we get some clear skies again soon before the Perseids disappear for another year.

I went to photograph the sun rising behind the Spinnaker Tower and found myself seeing the tail end of a Perseid Meteor Shower.
I popped out last night to catch more Aurora shots but I missed the best of it. I still took a shot just to get the distant glow of lights in Aberdare and the last of the Auroral glow. When I hit the trigger, a shooting star from the Quadrantid Meteor Shower photobombed the image.
I won't complain.
Trolling for meteors from Timberline Lodge parking lot. Ski area lights are visible on the glacier. Occasional car headlights lightened the lower right corner. A cloud bank is moving in from the east on the right side of the frame.

From our relocation trip across the US... again :) This time we took i40. waaaay better. This was from a quick stop (15mins!) at the Meteor Crater near Flagstaff Arizona. Still experimenting with some of the stitching. This one could use a bit more work, have a couple others to work with. More versions to follow.

This is from my other camera that had a lens with a narrower field of view. This is a non-time-shifted image where I just let the meteors fall where they may. I picked the ones that appeared to be "showering" down on the lake.

My best Perseid meteor from last night. I did catch one or two other feint ones, which just goes to show never delete anything from your camera until you've seen it on the computer screen! Clearer skies forecast tonight so fingers crossed for some more!

I removed almost all stars from this photo to better see a meteor as it passed through the bowl of the Big Dipper and burned up.
This photo was from the Eta Aquarid meteor shower in May, 2010.
If you can see the binary stars in the handle of the dipper at night, you have very good eyesight.
WA638 and WL419, the two active Martin Baker Meteors on the ground at their home base of Chalgrove in Oxfordshie.
This was taken during on Wednesday, December the 13th, during the Geminid meteor shower. Unfortunately and surprisingly I did not capture a single meteor in this shot. Every time that I would turn my camera to take a shot a meteor would fall in the opposite part of the sky. Very frustrating.
Just a reminder that this year's Perseid Meteor Shower will peak on the night of 11 August and the morning of 12 August. I set up a trial last night to check my settings and was rewarded with an early sighting around 2.00 am this morning. You can see a meteor in the middle of the picture. This was looking North East but I've no idea what the cluster of stars is. Perhaps someone will know. At their peak there may be around 200 meteors an hour in the early hours of the 12th, the best for around 20 years. Good luck if you're going to watch them and here's hoping for clear skies! PS You might see the meteor better viewing large.
PPS The cluster is Pleiades, part of Taurus. Thanks to John Clark for the i/d.

Hello World! After what's seems to be a lifetime, have finally moved into new home and got connected - has taken since April which is why I've hardly posted anything for past few months...and started new job as well for more complications.
Anyway, here now in Wiltshire - one of first pictures at new abode was of a meteor - hope this is first of many.....

Thanks everybody for all the nice comments! The feedback is overwhelming.

A brighter Perseid meteor streaks across the sky next to the Milky Way as Jupiter shines brightly to the right. If you look carefully, you'll see the Andromeda Galaxy at lower center. Scattered clouds can be seen at the bottom, but decent, clear skies allowed for a decent show last night in Central Texas. Will try again tonight.
The Perseids meteor shower - the most popular meteor shower of the year - peaks this weekend!

Massive pillars and awesome colors from an aurora substorm over the Blue Ridge mountains on the Bedford Botetourt county line. Massively lucky to catch a meteor streaking across the sky. I caught at least four on this night, but this was the largest.

I was taking some untracked long exposure landscape shots when this meteor flew over at a low angle. It got red hot, then burned up in the atmosphere.
I was only able to get one long meteor image before my lens dewed up. I was too lazy to put on my lens warmer.
